Spring Banquet 2012 was successfully held on Saturday March 3 at a Chinese restaurant in Markham. Eight tables of alumni, family members and friends filled the venue with engaging chats while enjoying great food and entertaining programs.
The feature of the night was an interesting talk by our president David Wong (’64), titled 龍年四吉四凶. Michael Au (INC Chairman, WYHK ‘69) gave the audience an update on the upcoming IC2012 (click here to see a video by Peter Lau, Co-chair IC2012), amid other fun-filled games. A big thank-you to our MC Fred Fung ('72) who led the smooth execution of programs throughout the night. Please click here to view the pictures.

Born in Shanghai, China, Alexander received his music training at the National Conservatory of Music in Shanghai.
After arriving in Hong Kong, starting in 1952, he was a violist in the former Sino-British Orchestra, now known as Hong Kong Philharmonic Orchestra. By 1955, he was the soloist tenor in both Crescendo Choral Society and Hong Kong Choral Group. He also gave several solo performances in Hong Kong.
Alexander taught at Wah Yan College, Kowloon from 1954 to 1959 as its music teacher. He was the conductor for Trial by Jury in 1955 and HMS Pinafore in 1956, both by Gilbert and Sullivan. During his tenure as the music teacher, WYK won several awards in Music Festivals. [Click here for Mr. Wong's farewell recital at WYK in 1959]
We’ve created a series of web sections under ‘Your Class’ in the top horizontal menu, providing a platform for classmates of a specific graduation year to share information and latest news. Class ’64 has set up a very good example and this is what they have to say,
"For a long time, we, the classmates of 1964 have been looking for a platform where we can update each other with our latest news; share our photos, videos and interesting articles. We have now found it in "Your Class" section. We have created the Class 1964 which we can now call home and we proudly announce that as of today, the site is officially open for ‘business’."
Classmates of other years are welcome to do the same (click here to let us know). We are hoping this website can serve as a portal where alumni of all years would come visit and share.
